Mining Indaba Highlights Urgent Need for Local Banks to Finance African Projects

The Mining Indaba this year made clear how important it is for regional banks to back more mining projects in Africa, especially those that foreign lenders deem riskier. In 2022, Africa spent less than 10 per cent of the worldwide average on mining exploration, although possessing 30 per cent of the worlds mineral reserves. This was mainly because of challenges in obtaining money from outside sources. Local financial institutions are encouraged to fill this need as interest in African mining grows. The secondlargest bank in the Democratic Republic of the Congo, EquityBCDC, spoke with Celestin Mukeba Muntuabu, Managing Director, about his banks plans for African mining.

Additionally, Tanzania faces a sugar shortage, prompting regulators to approve imports and plans to boost local production. Read More..
